There are large Chinese, East Indian, Pakistani, and Vietnamese communities
in Toronto, Vancouver, and Montreal and even in smaller Canadian cities like
Ottawa, where I live. I'm sorry, but I don't know where recent Asian
immigrants gravitate to in in the NYC area -- probably to where preceding
generations of European immigrants lived in cheap housing before moving out
to the suburbs.
